Well, it's not the first time - the FSF pulled the same stunt back in October of 2007. And no doubt, if it continues to be allowed, it will happen again. My original proposal was very simple: create one more list as a formal notice place for LC's, since many of the FSF drive-by posters were saying 'but, but your LC said send comments here'. Anyway, nothing is stopping an IETF person from sending email to the IETF list about something they want to bring up there, so if an LC has something that really bugs someone in the IETF, they can still send email to the IETF list about it.
